bad_email

This crate can be used to check email domains against a list of 10234 known disposable email domains.

The crate has one function that returns true or false based on a full email being passed in as a copy of str slice and then splinting the str on '@' and then comparing the domain name to the list of unwanted domain names.

Returns true for an email address passed in with a domain name that is on the unwanted domain list

Returns false for an email address passed in with a domain name that is not on the unwanted domain list

Motivation
